One of the interesting things about this political moment is how many MAGA people are convinced that the libs are in the “find out” stage of FAFO, while, in reality, what’s really going on is that MAGA is in the “fuck around” stage.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.
With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.
You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

One of the problems I have is connecting faces to names or vice versa. I may remember your name or your face but often not both. I don’t think it’s official face blindness but it’s awful for me at conferences or even the store when people come up to me and say hi. 😭😵💫

I got to the hotel shuttle and gave the lady my name for my reservation. She looked at me, alarmed. She asked me to meet her around the corner of her little booth and asked me in a whisper if I was certain I didn’t need an ADA accommodation because according to her list, I was in a wheelchair.
